School's almost over =^^=!

Jun 07, 2003 21:32

I can't believe tomorrow will be the last day of school. It seems like I just arrived in the US yesterday. I remember how I always used to pray that time will go faster, that I'll be happier later. Sometimes it really makes me sad, well cross that out, it ALWAYS makes me sad when I think of the far future, when my parents die, aunts, and so on. I'll think of myself when I am a old person, and I feel really scared. I feel like now that I'm young I should not take it for granted, that I should contribute something to society, I should do something important. I don't want to sit there when I'm olding regretting. To me, it's better to do something then to regret you never did it. Sounds good, hard to apply.

I'm going to start working on my new website. It's going to me blog. It will be very different from my old blogs. For one, I'll be doing all of the illustrations by hand, which is, creating things from scratch, like using illustrator, or even drawing something on paper and than scanning it in, then coloring it.

Oh, you know what I just remembered? I went to my first job interview yesterday. It was just terrible, but now that I think about it, it's just funny. Anyways, I applied at this place called the Hot Dog. It's in downtown, and the manager called me when I was taking a nap to schedule a interview time. Do you know what it feels like to be dead tired, sleeping, then suddenly having a phone shoved in your earing, and knowning that it's someone important? Well, I scheduled it and half the time I didn't even know what I was doing. As soon as he said BYE, I just plopped down and fell asleep. On fact, when I woke a little bit I thought I dreamt the whole thing. Then I dozed off. A while later, the manager called again to reschedule. I told him I'll show up at 12:00 since I have exams. After that I was still sleepy but it was tine to eat. Anywyas, so yesterday I walk into the interview and the manager saids nothing after I say Hi! So, I tried again, I tried in my best cheerful voice "I'm here for the interview!". Well, he gave me this look like as if I was stupid, and said, "well, you're two days late". SO. I was too sleepy that I didn't cxatch the correct time. I knew by then I wasn't going to be hired. But anyways, he still invited me to talk. He asked me these questions that I had to think about, like what I needed to work on. I know I am not perfect, but it just seems like one of those questions that you just had to think for something APPROPRIETE to say. I mean, I know a lot of my flaws, like I like to gossip, I like spending money, I always want to buy things, I dont' like to do work, of course, that's a big one, "I dont' like to do work" BUT, I can't say that to him can I?! So, anyways, he told me to "think about that one", I think he probably thought I was stuck up and thought I was too vain or something. But the worst question came when he asked me, "so when there are no customers here, there is nothing (no work)to do here.. what do you do?". Well, I thought he meant like NOTHING, ABS. NOTHING, so I said "talk or read or something". I mean, I thought that was a good answer. What am I suppose to do when all the work is done? Sit? But apparently he didn't mean that, what he MEANT was when -all- the- customers- left- and -the -place- is -in -a -mess what do you do? Of course if he had asked me that, well no like as MATTER OF FACT, but in a less vague sort of way I would of answered "CLEAN UP!". Anywyas, so he was really, let's say "turned off" by my answers. And, *sigh* oh well, now I know what to say on my next interview. Besides, I don't want to work in a fast food place anyways....
